The role of antibiotics in the treatment of bacterial infections: A literature review

Résumé fourni par la source

Bacterial infections continue to be a major public health challenge due to the large number of potential pathogens and varying disease states from mild or asymptomatic to life-threatening conditions. The increasing threat of antibiotic resistance poses significant challenges in the treatment of bacterial infections, primarily stemming from the misuse and overuse of antibiotics. The emergence of multidrug resistant organisms such as Acinetobacter baumannii, which compromises the arsenal of treatment options that healthcare providers have to manage diseases, has led to the development of increased resistance in microbes; therefore, appropriate policies need to be implemented to combat antibiotic resistance and ensuring effective treatment. A comprehensive understanding of these evolving treatment modalities, alongside stringent adherence to prescribing guidelines, is crucial for overcoming the current antibiotic crisis and improving patient care.
